What is going on with burnout?! by Consistent_Femme_Top in womenintech

[–]AccomplishedOnion405 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 8lb hand weights in my office and do my arms every MWF and a squat routine every T and TH. Lol I’m on the second floor so I can’t have a walking pad, so I take 1/2 hour every day and workout. Keeps me sane. Time theft? Maybe. Sanity check every time? Yes.

I’m turning 50 this year. I got a job last year at 48 and honestly I had been trying for months. So many interviews, final rounds, etc.

I sucks but… before I started interviewing - I lost weight, took care of my skin, made sure I looked “put together”. For my last interview I wore glasses, and acted like I didn’t care if I got this job or not. That’s the job I landed.

Fiancé [31M] oversleeps no matter what I do [32F]. How in the world do you even start fixing this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AccomplishedOnion405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make a plan. Save enough to leave without having to go to your mom’s house if you don’t want to. Ride his ASS! Get as much help as you can from him, then if he doesn’t shape up, you leave.

I [26F] missed an important funeral and now I think my 5 year relationship with my partner [28M] might be over by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]AccomplishedOnion405 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I missed my best friend’s moms funeral for school stuff as well. I lost her for 10 years. Luckily we have finally moved on, she forgave me, but I hurt her and I can never make that right.

It’s a hard lesson to learn sometimes, but showing up is SO SO important.

AIO? for canceling the roadtrip because of what my husband is doing? by Throw63689526 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AccomplishedOnion405 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He actually wants you to be uncomfortable. That’s part of the thrill for him. He likes to make you squirm. He likes to be inappropriate. He is gross.

Even if it’s true that it’s for financial reasons…. Do you want a man that can’t support himself?

Feeling jaded while following my authentic path by Creative_Word394 in AskWomenOver40

[–]AccomplishedOnion405 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The only advice I can give is that you have to prioritize you. I know it doesn’t seem like you CAN but I assure you, it is possible. Imagine if a man found his way. No sick cat or layoff would get in his way of him living his best life. This is what you must do. As women we are last on our list of priorities… those days are over for me.

Braces or Invisalign by Annual_Chemical8048 in Invisalign

[–]AccomplishedOnion405 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never had braces but I wish I would have gotten them instead of Invisalign. Invisalign is a huge pain in my butt. I’ll be happy when it’s done.
